WiFi extension of B525

Sip

Pro Member
Can anyone recommend a WiFi access point/router to replace the WiFi from my B525. The WiFi from the router works fine, but I have some smart plugs that are behind appliance, and they give a low signal warning. I have tried various WiFi extenders, but these seem to be fairly poor and inconsistent. Ideally I would like to be able to plug (via ethernet) from the B525 into a stronger wireless point and switch the WiFi from the B525 off.

Any helps would be appreciated. 👍🏼
 
THG3000 off ebay. Just bought one for 99 pence + delivery.. :)
They give great wifi. It's the Vodafone router, but you can use it as AP with any connection.

I must say when I was with Vodafone the WiFi signal was excellent around the house, especially compared to the TalkTalk and Virgin routers I had!

Worth a try before going for the expensive mesh systems, Deco or Eero from Amazon.
I had good results with both the Tenda MW5s at my mothers house, and MW3 at my grandfathers.
I was actually surprised how good the MW3 was for the money, the only downside was the lack of gigabit, but given it was installed on a 70/20 connection, it's never been an issue. They're installed in a 5 bed Victorian house with solid brick walls everywhere, and they've never missed a beat
 
I've used both of those too and they are pretty good and a lot cheaper than the high-end stuff.
